The Essence of Human, Machine and Data: POINT ZERO - Ars Electronica Blog

What makes a person a human being? These are questions this year's Ars Electronica Festival--theme: Artificial Intelligence – The Other I--aims to shed light on. The exhibition treating this topic, POINT ZERO, is a search for the essence of human, machine and data in the depths of POSTCITY Linz. In a prior interview, Gerfried Stocker, artistic director of Ars Electronica, gave us some fascinating food for thought about the festival theme. Here, he talks about artists' takes on artificial intelligence, the POINT ZERO theme exhibition and his personal highlights.
